Beyond the planets
What’s this?Close
Points read beside the planets. The rising sign, or Ascendant, is the sign coming up over the eastern horizon at the minute of birth: the first impression. The Midheaven is the highest point of the sky: career and public life. The North Node is where the Moon’s path crosses the Sun’s: the direction a life grows in. Chiron, a small body between Saturn and Uranus, is a lifelong sore spot and the gift it leaves for others. Black Moon Lilith, where the Moon’s orbit swings farthest from Earth, is what a person keeps untamed.
North Node in Capricorn
The direction her life grows in: Capricorn, ambitious and patient.
4°11′
Chiron in Gemini
In Gemini, Chiron is an old fear of not being heard, which becomes a gift for finding the words others lack.
14°31′
Black Moon Lilith in Libra
In Libra, Lilith is the one who stops keeping the peace at any price.
13°35′
The rising sign and the Midheaven need the birth time to the minute, so they are left out.
Patterns
What’s this?Close
When several aspects lock into one shape, such as a triangle or a cross, the planets in it act together, and the shape says how: easily, under strain, or with one planet as the focus.
Stellium
Three or more planets gathered in one sign or one house, so that part of the chart speaks loudest.
In her chart, her identity, her heart, her drive and her independence (the Sun, Venus, Mars and Uranus) gather in Taurus, and that part of life drew her attention first.
Aspects by strength
What’s this?Close
An aspect is a set angle between two bodies in the sky at birth. Some angles flow, some rub, and some fuse two bodies into one. The number is how far the angle is from exact: the smaller it is, the stronger the link.
Only the aspects that held from the first minute of the day to the last are shown; each figure is for noon.
The Moon square Saturn almost exact at 0.5°

Venus trine North Node almost exact at 0.7°
Love and friendship moved her forward: the people she cared for helped her find her way.
Venus conjunction Uranus close at 1.4°
Love at first sight, and freedom after it: the different and the new won her heart.
The Sun sextile Saturn close at 1.5°
Purpose and patience worked as a team: she built slowly and got better with every year.
Mars sextile Pluto close at 1.9°
Stamina and willpower: she kept going long after others stopped, and she did her best work under pressure.
Uranus trine North Node close at 2.1°
Change helped her forward: she grew by trying the new.

Purpose and drive in one place: she was quick to start, quick to compete and hard to stop.
